Both sides work against this trade now: funding costs −$9 a day on $10k at the current rate, and Aster is 0.104% cheaper against Kraken Futures than usual: you would sell low and buy high (−$10 if the spread goes back to its 7-day average of +0.004%). Swap the legs. Mind the row above: over the last 7 days funding on this pair paid +0.608%, so the current rate has only just turned against you.
